When we came home from hospital we were able to spend a couple days at home with Colt before we had to rush back to work. Unfortunately we have bills to pay :( He recovered really well and fast. For the first three weeks or so he was waking every 2-3 hours at night though. That made for two very tired parents. Of course he couldn't help his schedule got off. We would feed him each time, then he would only wake twice then once. Then he would wake a couple times and we would just have to put his passy back in. But, I'm proud to say he has been sleeping through the night completely since Sunday, woohoo!! He goes to bed around 7 and gets up around 6:30 or 7am. He wakes up very happy just talking away. I let him lay there and talk about 5 minutes or so before I get him. I love hearing him just chatter away. He loves to turn circles in his crib.
We couldn't pick him up under his arms for 6 weeks. That was tough and took some getting used to. It also set him back a little developmentally because he couldn't use his bumbo or exersaucer to practice sitting up. But no big deal. He's back at it now and will be sitting up in no time. He loves to roll! He's finally drinking 5 ounces each bottle and has baby food three times a day. He's gaining weight and the doctor wants us to watch him and if he gets too chubby we have to switch formula, haha. He's had his first pool and beach experiences and loved both!! Can't wait until next year when he can run around the beach on the sand :) He has even spent a couple days with his girlfriend Emery. They were both on their best behavior and loved being together all day, haha.
I am looking forward to the weekend so I can spend time with him. It sucks coming home from work and only having an hour or so with him at night. And one night a week I have to work til 7, (tonight) and he was already in bed when I got here :(
Have I mentioned he is 7 months old today???? Time is going by way too fast!! We are so blessed to have such a strong, sweet, happy boy. Thanks to all of you for your thoughts and prayers this last surgery and everyday. Hopefully we won't be back for another for two years. Until next time, enjoy some pictures of our precious boy.
